sunset symphony

our holiday weekend began with the ending celebration of Memphis in May, the sunset symphony, along the banks of the Mississippi River. This year the guest performer was KC and the Sunshine Band! we were able to go again this year with one of our favorite couples – it was their first night out post-newborn baby. there were several other families from church also.

we endured an hour’s worth of raininess. but we were lucky to have trashbag ponchos and an air show to distract us.

once the rain went away, the music was a nice addition and i was ready to devour our picnic we had hauled down to the river. there wasn’t much of a sunset due to the clouds but there was plenty of symphony. just as dark really began to set in, KC and his crew took the stage, complete with feather boas and silvery clad back up dancers! we were all shaking our booties! and there’s nothing like a good set of laughing pictures as a souvenir of a good night…..
